The MDNS problems with ADB Wi-Fi include: the device side uses Apple's Bonjour reference implementation that has not been updated for over a decade, running with root privileges and having memory leaks; the workstation side uses Bonjour ported from the phone side on Mac, and uses the implementation from the Chromecast open source project Open Screen on Linux and Windows.
Open Screen was designed for Chromecast and does not implement the function of actively probing the network, causing ADB to fail to find devices when a workstation reconnects after sleeping.
The KEF LSX 2 LT powered speakers simultaneously support three connection protocols: AirPlay, Chromecast, and DLNA.
The Chromecast protocol (Google Cast) has the sender control the media URL while the receiver pulls the stream itself, with compatibility issues most commonly manifesting during the media format negotiation phase.
Jellybox supports AirPlay screen mirroring, with DLNA and Chromecast support coming soon.
Chromecast is a media casting protocol and device ecosystem launched by Google; it works by sending a media URL to the receiving device, which then pulls the stream and plays it independently.
Meelo's development roadmap includes improving support for non-ASCII character names, offline download playback, crossfade, and Chromecast casting support.
